| Russia Defends North Pole Flag-Planting |
Last week I wrote about Russia's pitiful attempt and drive by flag staking on the Arctic Floor bed. I don't think they've read my blog but they sound really pissed off today. Mostly in response to how many nations have dismissed this bold move as meaningless and "just a show".
Artur Chilingarov, the Russian polar scientist who led this fiasco let us have it by saying, "I don't give a damn what all these foreign politicians there are saying about this. If someone doesn't like this, let them go down themselves ... and then try to put something there. Russia must win. Russia has what it takes to win. The Arctic has always been Russian."
Then he goes on to show this nifty little photo in a sad attempt to prove that they did indeed stake a titanium flag to the Arctic Floor bed. Come on now Russia. Who are you trying to kid? I know the difference between an MS Paint and Photoshop job.
At least America provided film footage when we walked upon the moon.
I said it last week and I'll say it again. You can't just mechanically slam dunk Russia's flag on the Arctic Floor and claim it as your own. The rules are that you must physically get out of your transport vehicle, whether that be ship, spacecraft or submarine. Then you must physically stand and walk, say a few choice words and stuff that flag into the ground.
Of course at 3 miles under water you would surely die from decompression. It will be a dangerous and fatal expedition - but this is the only way. There must be a Russian willing to give his life for his country and their energy needs? If not, I'm sure the KGB have a few they'd like to throw away.
Sorry but this expedition is a fiasco. It doesn't count because you're too pussy to do it right. |
Stumble It!

I'm sure Hitler would be proud. Freakin' idiots. Never liked Russians, they're too shifty. China and Russia, they're just too retarded for the international dining table.
To the childrens table, they go. Huddy!

Awww John, don't be so offended and uptight. This whole thing is merely sarcasm and meant in good humor.
Plus, everyone knows the North Pole is home to Santa Claus. Your people can't just stake a flag up there and evict Santa and all of his elves.
